In reply to Budeprion (Generic) vs. Wellbutrin, posted by Daniel2000 on September 30, 2004, at 7:41:28
My ob/gyn put me on Wellbutrin due to my complaints of poor libido. There was a study that proved Wellbutrin would increase libido and also decrease your weight. Sounded like a great deal. I took her samples for 1 week --greatly incresed libido within 2 days and only mild caffeine-like headaches. I went in to get my firstRx. But it was not for Wellbutrin- it was the generic- Budeprion. Not what i expected. I took it the first day and immediately noticed a difference. It was like i wasn't taking the medication at ALL. Then the symptoms started- no headache but constipation, not wanting to do ANYTHING at all but sit around or sleep, walking around like i was in a daze and just not feeling well at all. I also felt depressed and had never felt that before i was on the Rx. Remember, the only reason i went on it was to increase libido. But with this--NO libido either! I called my dr today and her nurse stated "off the record" they have had MANY complaints on this Rx. So...after hearing that and seeing everyone else's complaints-- I know we're not all loosing our minds. There is definitely a reason. They are NOT the same medications! Good luck to you all.
